He dresses like the sort of guy who'd throw knives at you in a tuppeny circus. He's got the world's third most famous moustache (Hitler and Stalin, since you asked). He sings songs about love and escape and tragedy and murder and, well, big themes. Big blustery themes. He's Brandon Flowers, and he's headlining a festival near you soon (well, when they finish the next record, but you know what we mean).

After Glasto and T, V is a park-walk for The Killers. They've sold seven zillion albums sold and counting (most of those album-owners seem to be here - Virgin Radio is after all Brandon's second spiritual heartland). They've got lots of songs destined to soundtrack programmes consisting of clips of sporting triumphs.

In short, they do everything they need to. Finish the main set with 'Mr Brightside'. Finish encore (apart from the brief 'Exitlude') with 'All These Things That I've Done', and drop in a genuinely amazing Joy Division cover ('Shadowplay'). It's slick, sharp, shiny, and strangely soulless.

Best Song: 'All These Things That I've Done'

Best Moment: Their Joy Division cover - 'Shadowplay' - a twisted glimmering robotic-shriek which causes confused looks from on the faces of houseives who moments earlier were singing along to 'Mr Brightside'.
